People v Property at 2850 Ewing Rd
429 Mich 883; 416 NW2d 115
1987
 

OPINION

On order of the Court, the motion for leave to file an amicus curiae brief in support of the application for leave to appeal is considered, and it is GRANTED.

The application for leave to appeal is also considered, and it is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the question presented should be reviewed by this Court. The denial is without prejudice to the plaintiff's right to proceed on the alternative theory that the house is forfeitable because it is "traceable to an exchange for a controlled substance". MCL 333.7521(f); MSA 14.15(7521) (f).

Brickley and Boyle, JJ., would grant leave to appeal.

DOROTHY COMSTOCK RILEY, Chief Justice, CHARLES L. LEVIN, JAMES H. BRICKLEY, MICHAEL F. CAVANAGH, PATRICIA J. BOYLE, DENNIS W. ARCHER, ROBERT P. GRIFFIN, Associate Justices.

About

I am one of Michigan's leading criminal defense attorneys, and I frequently cross over into the realm of civil litigation when my clients face civil asset forfeiture claims. Cash and US currency seizures, car seizures, and even homes and real estate may be subject to Michigan's civil asset forfeiture laws, and I have successfully fought the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office, the FBI, the DEA, and US Customs on civil asset forfeiture cases.
